The way it was no trouble at all to provide me with gluten/dairy products for breakfast, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Was greeted warmly and the accommodation was lovely, it certainly was a treat for my birthday.

A real seaside gem.
A real seaside gem. Plenty of pubs (but they do get busy in the season) shops and a long beach with a pier. The afternoon tea at the Swan I would declare the best I've ever had. The adnams brewery and distillary tours are worth doing if of interest. A place of charm, pleasent walks, slowly drunk coffees and letting the world slow down a bit.

We were out of season and some cafes closed at 3pm which we weren’t expecting but several restaurants, pubs and cafes in the town centre.
The pier arcade was open and you could have a tour of the lighthouse plus the brewery.
We walked to Walberswick (no ferry available until April) and some nice cafes there too!
Lovely sandy beach and lots of nice fish dishes to eat along with many different Adnams beverages!

It was a great place to visit.
It was a great place to visit. Southwold in it self is quite small. There were a number of different jobs and local landmarks to visit which we enjoyed. Car parking prices were reasonable. Despite some places were closed, we still made the most of it and enjoyed our visit. There were definitely sufficient food places to choose from which were quite happy with. The shops were varied between local shops and bigger branded shops. The landmarks we visited were good too. You could probably see most of Southwold within a day. If everything was open and it was in the summer time, you would probably need more than a day to visit every inch of Southwold.

Never stayed in the Blyth Hotel before so was pleased to find it was dog friendly. The breakfast was good, the fish pie was lovely and it felt very relaxed and informal. Room felt uncluttered but warm and cosy,
We usually stay in The Swan but they don't take dogs. Also the reception staff were unhelpful when trying to book afternoon tea for one of our days, saying the kitchen would be closed. Walking past the kitchen looked pretty much open judging by the number of people that were in there. Make your own conclusions on that one but I doubt they will have much of our custom in the future.
Also try the Sole Bay Inn, dog friendly and good beer and food - you can't book in advance for grub. Bear in mind this is Feb so the Pier was completely closed until the season opens.

Southwold is lovely and picturesque, atmosphere is like going back in time. All the shops and staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. We stayed and ate in the crown, highly recommended. We also ate at Coasters which again was perfect and highly recommended. You can walk around Southwold, no need for transport. Lovely, welcoming town with plenty to do in the winter months. The beach walk we took was peaceful and relaxing. We felt completely relaxed and rejuvenated upon our return home. Advice is to book your evening meals before you arrive, we witnessed many people not being able to book tables obviously because everyone wants to eat in the lovely hotels and restaurants, there is also a lovely fish and chip shop who cook to order should you not be able to book a table so no one goes hungry. Lunchtime is an ideal time to visit the many bakers to have a cuppa and lovely fresh snacks. The Sailors library is a must visit

Very nice small town on the coast. Very nice beach.
Very nice small town on the coast. Very nice beach. Lots of small local shops with wide selection of products and very good prices. Nice beach and good selection of restaurants and eating/snacking establishments. Local brewery has great selection of local craft beers in all establishments.
We stayed in squirrel. Lovely accommodation, small kitchen and sitting area and bathroom downstairs then lovely bedroom upstairs. Our daughter stayed on camp bed. Small seating area outside, has beautiful gardens surrounding. Great breakfast one morning (extra). Everything was very good, very welcoming, great advice on places to go. Really good location, short drive into Southwold but good spot for travelling further down coast - we also visited Aldeburgh, Orford and Snape.
The Swan is a fabulous hotel, right in the centre of Southwold. The staff are friendly, approachable and seem very happy in their working environment . Our room was very clean and extremely comfortable and set around the garden courtyard, so very quiet. We ate in the Still Room restaurant both nights of our stay and the food was fabulous . Everything was delicious and beautifully presented.
Beautiful room with top quality finish and furnishings. Lovely extra touches, with good selection of teas and coffee. Comfy bed and bed sheets. Great location for exploring Southwold and the beach. Lovely 10 minute stroll into the town, either by road or by beach. Similar distance to the harbour.
Firstly all the staff were wonderful. Helpful, funny and very friendly. Breakfasts were great, good choices and plenty of it. We were a group of ten family members and everyone loved the hotel and staff. Just off the bar was an area with couches where we could all sit together which was wonderful.
We loved the location and The Swan had a reputation for one of the best places to go. The staff were excellent and friendly. The breakfast was super efficient and lovely. The town was a great shopping experience with boutique shops and small shops that are high street chains.
Everything….the cleanliness, location, food were great! Also nice and quiet. However, I didn’t realize we were getting the small room, my reservation led me to believe we had the garden room. But as I mentioned, the more important aspects of the room/hotel were great!
Staff were superb, friendly and incredibly helpful.
Food was fabulous and dietary requirements were fully accommodated for, including for guests who visited us at the hotel.
Hotel was a lovely distance from the town, with a nice 15 minute walk to the beach.
A unique experience.
Huge (and I mean really big) room with comfy beds and luxurious bedding.
Very nice helpful staff.
Fabulous breakfast.
Interesting building - rustic luxury.
Good spot for exploring Suffolk coast by car or bike.
I love southwold,staying on my own hotel was good.resteraunt for evening food good. The room was good size, I liked the extra touches, eg beer in room. Loved the reading room, overall great hotel.
Great location and facilities. Comfortable bed and clean. Two couples went and had a great time, we will look at availability next time we are staying in Southwold. Would recommend to anyone.
Lovely little cottage just off the Main Street in Southwold. Brilliant location near the beach and the town. Has a lovely cosy feel. Small but perfect for 2 adults, 2 kids and our lab!
Beautifully converted room. With beautiful en suite with bath and shower. Plenty of wood beams, very atmospheric.
Easy to get to Wangford or Southwold for dinner.
